reincarnation negates the idea of being punished by being sent to hell. - it means you have many many chances to evolve and ascend to higher and higher forms of being.

FYI- reincarnation goes one way- upward. you can't be born a human then devolve into an animal. this is what some people use to dismiss the possibility. the levels of consciousness between humans and animals are great, the souls are different, so this argument is moot.

Why is it that christians say that even non christians wear a cross? Have you ever seen a hindu or a jew or a muslim wearing one? I havent, have you? Now its obvious that hindus and jews and muslims all got there garbage that they wear to represent whatever trash they believe in, so why would a non christian wear a cross when its obviously a sign of the MYTH of jesus? I think if a non christian is wearing a cross they're a little confused, just like if a person who is black is wearing a chinese flag. I've never worn a cross and never will since theres no god, and anyone who actually believes as i do wouldnt wear one unless they're confused.

Now we have a child and are fighting over how she should be raised. Within the church or given the choice to decided on her own. I feel that since she is only one year old right now that this is the best time to get into the routine of going to church. I value my christain up bringing and I want her to benifit for the morals and family values that I got as a child. Any suggestions you have are welcom thanks.

whats more the title Rapture comes from Latin origins I would think Protestant believers in Rapture would use a different word.
From my investigation rapture theology starts with Charles Nelson Darby less that 150 years ago.

being embalmed, rotting in the grave, being cremated, etc. do you feel anything happens? Is it like 0, zero, zip, nil, nothing, end of story end of you? Or do you feel that you are reincarnated? If so, do you come back as another human and are born all over again at some future date? Could you be born in a different country, speak a different language, and be of a different sex than you presently are? Is this present day life as good as it's going to get? Or- could you came back as an animal such as a dog or bird? Could you come back as a plant like a tree or like seaweed? If there is no Heaven or hell, what is there- if anything? Just wondering how, what you feel about these things and why. Thank You.

Nonbelievers are very blinded by the truth and they will see one day hopefully why they were so twisted and blinded and couldnt see that God created us and they think we evolved from a monkey but Christians, We cant force them but is anyone offended by telling the truth so the world could see the true God the kings of kings and lord of lords the one who died on the cross fo us just pray once youll know he is withyou try it sometime its worth it god bless.

Muslim children can get food appropriate to their dietary laws, but they can't have a nativity scene. Am I the only one that can see the difference between the two? Would you really want a kid to be unable to have school lunch because you can't have a nativity? Thanks.

Satan is a part of the Christian and Muslim religions.
Since pagans are neither Christian nor Muslim, Satan is not part of our deity structure at all.

We believe that each and every human being is completely responsible for his or her own actions.
To us, evil is a choice, albeit a bad one, that a human might make, not an embodied entity to blame our actions upon.

If an individual chooses to do evil, most pagans believe they will be punished via the laws of karma or as a result of "cause and effect.". In other words, "What goes around usually comes around."

What do you believe.. are you responsible for your actions or are you going to blame something else. ?

In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful

Do you enjoin others to do what is good and forget your ownselves, while you read the book? Will you not then understand?

Nay, whosoever submits himself completely to God and he is the doer of good, shall have his reward from his Lord. No fear shall come on them nor shall they grieve.

Say, 'Will you worship beside God that which has no power to do you harm or good? And Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing.

I've always been taught that its a sin to worry, that you are supposed to place your problems in God's hands. But if I was given free will and caused these problems myself isn't it my duty to fix them which inevitably means I'm going to worry about them until they are fixed. I'm confused and I guess I'm lacking in the faith department.

Of the ladder you once were so adamant, in your attempt to ascend...
Past the low points and on to the higher, The place you felt at ease...
Where you could afford to provide for another, No pity or sarcasm please...
Have you felt so lost that you could not percieve a smile on the happiest day?
Did you fake one for the sake of good company, and cry as they went away?
Is it better to conceal all emotion, to be tough and fall apart inside?
Or should you just break down like a child, next to the one whom you can confide?
To God I pray that I'll see the light, that may lead me out of this haze,
That obstructs my view of where I should be, I feel I've been wandering for days!
I'll most likely get poor results from this, from a report of "Answers Abuse"
For many, this site is the only way, to avoid becoming withdrawn and recluse!
Happy Holidays to all of you, May your season bring Joy to your heart...
I feel as if I've lost my will to repair.. as my hopes are just falling apart!
